Not really.  Remember that this works by actually creating multiple objects
at PARSE time, and NOT by modifying the object at RENDER time.  This
technique does not use distributed ray-tracing to achieve the effect.  You
could jitter the time that was used for creation of the object (see Chris
Huff's reply) but I don't think it would do what you want.

Yes, you could do this.
